Believe to Achieve

9 miles , five with Amber, cottontree family practice.  did her loop after heading to maceys to use bathroom then I did three more on my own toward canyon and back.  8:55 avg. felt easy.

worked, thought I worked wednesday.  mistake either way.  good shift.  got to sleep in until 611 am.  just happened to use bathroom at 611 am and saw work tried to call me.  

8 at vasa.  3 warm up easy.  on my old last jan=march tm.  10 x 2 min off at 8:34 to 8:57 pace and 2 min on at 6:58 pace x 3 at this pace, 3 at 6:53 pace,  1 at 6:49, 1 at 6:44 and 1 at 6:38 and last at 6:35.  felt good.  left hip a little tight at beginning. 

Hike with Brooke after Layton temple session and breakfast salad at Kneaders.   Really a salad but we hadn't had breakfast.  8:45 session. In car at `10:30 am. Shortened version but we took pics and looked up where we were going.  WE on Adam's Canyon hike.  1.9 out and back from restroom.  2 hours 14 min with our stop at top.  We got pelted with wind and some rain with looming t=storm clouds but they passed after we got through the switch backs and into the shade.  PERFECT TIMING !  We almost turned back. Water fall was wonderful!!  Steep in areas for sure.  Shaded until falls and on way back sun was back out and it was toasty.  Great views of Layton temple :D.   we looked for a stream to soak our feet, reservoir blocked off small pond was too So we thought of vasa to change at since we were sweaty and had brought a change of clothes.  Along our conveniently 1.5 miles to vasa when we searched for it we saw a splash pad with only two kids there so we joined them and changed in that bathroom after.  We then went to the outdoor mall in layton :D.  I was then really suddenly tired and needed more food so I got us a peach shake at chick fil a then we headed to pick up David after reading three in a series of creepy carrots/ underwear and crayons books and read them to each other.  Laughing.  We then ate out at this train station mexican restaurant which was delightful.  Not too pricey and perfect portions.  El Sabor I think.  Headed back to Layton temple and Brooke got her car and they left and I left for home :D

651 am.   potty stop 8 min just before first mile.   lone 20 miler.  amber no show.  3 miles before er potty maceys.  back to car to check phone for amber and nope but went to her apartment street not there and back to car to tell her where to go.  plan was 6 up canyon and back then 4 out and back toward lake.  I decided while running by eternal fountain to just do  the rest as out and back after the 3 around cottontree etc.  So I turned around at 11.5 miles which was a mile past bridal veil falls.  8.5 miles back to car.  paces were decent.  stopped at water at maceys, my car, eternal fountain times 2, bathroom at campground x 2 and wills pit stop where it burned like nothing else.  Two miles left and  I felt GREAT!!!!  Paces decent=  8:26 avg  phone broken so cant change screens right now to see paces.   got the paces:  921, 903, 846, 901 Uphill to univ, 844, 841, 858, 839, 843, 829, 756, 741 (singing phantom throuh these miles) , 731, 742, 753, 742, 753, 758, 756 and 756.
